After the dough for making dumplings is kneaded, it usually needs to be covered with a cloth and left to rest for a while. This process is called resting or baking. During the resting process, the starch granules in the dough can fully absorb water. , helping the protein structure to stretch better, allowing the gluten in the dough to further relax and expand, which is beneficial to the subsequent shaping and shaping operations.
